There are some quality teachers at thigpen but then there are some who wonder aimlessly. I've dealt with both. The negitive far outweighs the positive in this building. I HATED that there is no official library, Art or music rooms. Lack of orginization is a major issue when it comes time for holiday programs, begining or end of school. Parking ia a nightmare at events. the bus system being run by a seperate company outside of the school district is a no no in my eyes. There are severe issues in this school acidemicly & safetly wise. After sending my children here for 2 years I decided to leave the area so they can be given a quality education. SO glad I did before it was too late, They have caught on perfecty at their new school where they are learning new challenging work every day.

My children are not learning anything! My 4th grade has brought home several of the same spelling words as my 2nd grader! That is a HUGE concern. I do think that Thigpen is trying, but I can't wait around until they get it right.
